    Plus...green mulberries have a slightly hallucinogenic effect AND the berries are starting to ferment, even while still on the tree. It smells like a winery. So, there's a good chance the birds eating from this tree are drunk and high. Posted 2 years ago

        Don't think it's actually looking at you at all, it's trying to remember why it flew there. Posted 2 years ago

        It also is trying to figure out why everything is spinning. Posted 2 years ago
